Kotlowski examines such issues as school desegregation, fair housing, voting rights, affirmative action, and minority businesses as well as Native American and women's rights. He details Nixon's role, revealing a president who favored deeds over rhetoric and who constantly weighed political expediency and principles in crafting civil rights policy. 606 $aCivil rights$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAffirmative action programs$xGovernment policy$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1969-1974 615 0$aCivil rights$xHistory 615 0$aAffirmative action programs$xGovernment policy$xHistory 676 $a323/.0973/09047 700 $aKotlowski$b Dean J$01044091 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778442503321 996 $aNixon's civil rights$93745159 997 $aUNINA
